Summary ofBPK Motions for FSUCC - March 18,2011- Ryan Dill
Please see attachments for details of calendar changes.
1. Kinesiology Minor
Motion:
add Kin 30S and 306 to 'and four or list of required options for
Kinesiology
Minor.
Rationale: Several students currently take these courses for professional school
and would like to count them towards their minor
2. Professional School Transfer Requirements for Kinesiology Major
a. Motion:
Change upper division requirements for Professional transfer,
removing Kin
340, 301 and 407 from list.
b. Motion: Add optometry to list of professional schools.
Rationale: Kin 340 is removed, as it is not required in both majors. Kin 3011407
(lab requirement) is removed, as students often can not take these until their
final
semester. Optometry added as it is listed in the Faculty of Science guidelines. We
require a separate process fonn the faculty of science as the first year of many
professional schools involves
courses that are in oW' program (anatomy and
physiology).
3. Professional School Transfer Requirements for Biomedical Physiology Major
a. Motion: Add the following section to the Biomedical physiology Major
Program.
Professional
School
Transfer
Students are eligible to receive a bachelor of science (BSc) degree after
completion of the second year of professional study and have completed at least
90 units of Simon Fraser University credit comprising the following.
- all lower division requirements
-
27 upper division units in biomedical physiology and kinesiology (including -
KIN 304W, 305, 306, and 326)
- acceptance into an accredited professional program in dentistry, medicine,
optometry,
chiropractic, or veterinary medicine
Professional program courses must not duplicate those already completed at
Simon Fraser University and must be acceptable for transfer credit to the
University. Candidates apply for transfer credit and for receipt of the degree
through
Student
Services.
Rationale:
This section should be included in this major and be the same as just
revised
for the Kin Major.

4. Biomedical Physiology Honors Degree
a. Motion :
Remove the statement" at least
S4
of the 61 must be in biomedical
physiology and kinesiology comses." from the first paragraph as the degree
requires several upper division MBB and BISC comses.
b. Motion: Remove statement "only one of these comses may count toward the
requirement
of27
upper
division
elective
biomedical
physiology
and
kinesiology
units." from the last paragraph refening to directed studies comses.
Rationale:
As
some students move into honors after taking both directed studies
comses, we would like to allow our students to be able to count both directed
studies
courses
towards
their
honors
degree.
s. Change of course prerequisite for Kin 496 - Directed Studies I
Motion:
Remove the statement "Honoms students may count only one of either
KIN 496 or KIN 498 towards their 27 upper division Kinesiology elective units."
From the comse prerequisite of Kin 496.
Rationale: As some students move into honors after taking both directed studies
. courses, we would like to allow our students to be able to count both directed
studies courses towards their honors degree.
6. Change of course prerequisite for Kin 498 - Directed Studies n
Motion: Remove the statement "Honoms students may count only one of either
KIN 496 or KIN 498 towards their 27 upper division Kinesiology elective units."
From the comse prerequisite of Kin 498.
Rationale:
As
some students move into honors after taking both directed studies
courses, we would like to allow our students to be able to count both directed
studies comses towards their honors degree.
7. Admissions Process for Kinesiology Major
a. Motion: Remove post secondary transfer, option 2, from list of possible entry
b. Motion: Change
three
to two in second sentence of Admission Requirements.
c. Motion: Remove following sentence from Admission Requirements to align with
other programs in Faculty of Science

Admission
Title
and
description
e. Motion: Add the following paragraph and title after Direct Admission
Post-Secondary
Transfer

Students transferring to Simon Fraser University for the Kinesiology major will first

University. Candidates apply for transfer credit and for receipt of the degree
through
Student
Services.
TO:
Professional
School
Transfer
Students are eligible to receive a bachelor of science (SSc) degree after
completion of the second year of professional study and have completed at least
90 units of Simon Fraser University credit compriSing the following.
-
all lower division requirements
-
27 upper division units in biomedical physiology and kinesiology (including -
KIN 304W, 305, 306, and 326)
- acceptance into an accredited professional program in dentistry, medicine,
optometry.
chiropractic, or veterinary medicine
Professional program courses must not duplicate those already completed at
Simon Fraser University and must be acceptable for transfer credit to the
University. Candidates apply for transfer credit
and for receipt of the degree
through
Student
Services.

Rationale:
1. We will still require two years before granting transfer. as there is significant
overlap between our programs and the first year of most professional school
programs. Kin 340 is removed, as
it
is not required In the BIF major. Kin
3011
407 (lab requirement) is removed, as students often can not take these until their
final
semester.
2. Optometry added as It is listed in the Faculty of Science guidelines.
For Reference the following is used in the Faculty of Science
Current calendar:

Transfer
Credit and Bachelor of Science Degrees for Students Who
Successfully Complete First Year Medical Science Professional Training
Students who complete at least 90 units in a science degree program and are
accepted into an accredited professional program in medicine, dentistry,
optometry or veterinary medicine are eligible for a Simon Fraser University
bachelor of science degree after
successful completion of the first professional
study year. To be acceptable, courses completed In the professional program
must not duplicate those already completed at Simon Fraser University and must
be
acceptable for transfer credit in a major or honours program. Candidates must
apply for transfer credit and a bachelor's degree through Simon Fraser
University. Since official transcripts of the work completed in the first year of the
professional program are required for transfer credit. application for graduation
should be delayed until the summer term following the completion of
requirements.

Chemistry Motions for FSUCC meeting
(all material already
approved by Chern. Dept.)
Background for Motions 1-8
seus 11-23b
In
March 2008, the Chem. Dept. underwent an external review. Part of this review
included
an examination of our undergraduate curriculum. The review committee
commented as follows:
"In
the areas of physical and inorganic chemistry, the core courses provide
only the bare minimum. For example, an undergraduate at
SFU is likely
to receive only a cursory introduction to main group chemistry and a
rather limited exposure to kinetics .... The committee would prefer [over a
group theory/symmetry course - my brackets] to see the addition
of a
main group chemistry course and an increase in the exposure
of
undergraduates to basic physical chemistry as the first priorities for new
courses."
After extensive discussions throughout the Department (guided by the Dept.
Undergraduate Studies Committee), the Chemistry Dept. unanimously approved the
following package to address the concerns
of the external review, and also to further
improve our core offerings in general.
In
addition to pedagogical principles, the
issues
of maintaining flexibility for students through our program, as well as teaching
resource limitations, were taken into consideration. Thus, the following motions are
proposed for consideration by
FSUCC:
1. MOTION: To approve the new course CHEM 283-3, "Organic Chemistry lIb" as
outlined in the supporting documentation.
2. MOTION: To approve the new course CHEM 266-2,
"Physical Chemistry
Laboratory
III
as outlined in the supporting documentation.
3. MOTION: To approve the new course CHEM
330-4, "Chemistry of the Main-
Group Elements" as outlined in the supporting documentation.
4.
MOTION: To approve the new course CHEM 363-3, "Chemical Kinetics and
Reaction Dynamics" as outlined in the supporting documentation.
s. MOTION: To approve the change in the requirement for the completion of a
Chemistry Majors degree such that:

(a) CHEM 283-3 and CHEM 266-2 are required core courses.
(b) the number of upper-division chemistry electives required for a Chern. Major
degree increases from 9 to
15.
Rationale: This has the effect of guiding our students to taking more chemistry,
without forcing them to take specific courses. The number
of chemistry credit hours
required in the
SFU Major is less than most other schools in Western Canada and this
will help to rectify this situation.
(c)
Of the 15 UD-CHEM electives, 6 must be CHEM 4xx (as previously), 3 can be
from
MBB AND 3 can be NUSC.
Rationale: The current status is that 3 can be from MBB
OR
NUSC. This change
has the potential
of drawing some additional students to the NUSC courses without
negatively impacting their ability to take MBB courses.
6.
MOTION: To approve the change in the requirements for the completion of a
Chemistry Honours degree such that:
(a) CHEM 283-3 and CHEM 266-2 are required core courses.
(b) the number of required CHEMlelective credits at the lower/upper division is
adjusted
to reflect the addition of CHEM 283-3 and 266-2. The total credits remains
unchanged.
7. MOTION: To approve the course name change and prerequisite for CHEM
366W-3
to reflect the introduction of CHEM 266-2, as outlined
in
the supporting
documentation.
8.
MOTION: To approve the course name change and prerequisite for CHEM 367-
2 to reflect the introduction
of CHEM 266-2, as outlined in the supporting
documentation.
All course proposal documentation, course outlines and proposed changes to the
majorlhonours requirements are included below.
9.
MOTION: That the Physics requirements for the Chemistry Major program be
amended such that the following paragraph will be added to the section headed
"Students Intending to Specialize in Chemistry" between the two existing paragraphs
(page
191 of the 200912010 Calendar):
"Students are encouraged to complete the Standard
(PHYS 120IPHYS 121IPHYS

131) or Advanced (PHYS 125IPHYS 126IPHYS 131) streams of Physics. Students
may also choose to complete the Studio
(pHYS
140IPHYS
141) Physics stream.
Students who complete the Life-Sciences
(pHYS
101IPHYS
102IPHYS 130) stream
(which has a
BISC 100 or BISC 101 or BISC 102 co-requisite) with a minimum B
grade should have sufficient preparation for the Major program."
This change has been brought forward in consultation with and the approval
of
Physics (see attached documentation).

of this Couse:
Cuzrently, the second
half
of introductory organic
chemistry
(CHEM
282)
is offered as
a
2-credit. high enrollment (typically 200-300
students/semester)
comse
and is
required for a number of degree programs; including Chemistry,
Molecular
Biology
and
Biochemistry.
Biological Sciences. Enviromnental Science. Health Science.
and
Kinesiology. In addition. students that intend to transfer to professional programs in
dentistry. medicine, veterinary medicine, or pharmacology are required to complete
CHEM 282.
As a result of the limited lecture time available
in
a 2-credit comse
(2a
lectures). the
cu:rriculum
for CHEM
282
is a condensed version of what is taught at
most Canadian
universities. The rationale for introducing
CHEM 283 is
to provide
a
stronger foundation
in
organic
chemistry
for Chemistry majora and other
students
that
intend
to enroll
in upper
division
chemistry
courses. without
disrupting
cummt comse
requi%ements for other departments. It
is
important to note that CHEM 283
will
be
SCUS2006

taught concurrently with CHEM
282
by the same instructor. After
26
lectures together,
CHEM
282
and
283
students
will
write a comprehensive exam, following which CHEM
282
students
will
have completed their course requirements. Students enrolled in
CHEM
283 will
have an additional
13
lectures in which topics not covered in CHEM
282
but considered fundamental aspects of introductory organic chemistry (e.g.,
organometallics, radical
chemistry, pericyclic reactions, molecular orbital theory)
will
be discussed. These additional lectures
will
better prepare students for upper division
chemistry courses, bring our curriculum. in line with that of most other Canadian
universities
and the reduced class size for these last
13
lectures should enhance the
overall learning experience for students that intend to continue on in chemistry. It is
also
expected that students enrolled in CHEM
282 will
benefit from the condensed
semester (i.e., triweekly lectures for
8.7
weeks), as the current format for CHEM
282
(biweekly lectures for
13
weeks) includes a 4-day gap between lectures and, as a
result, considerable time is wasted on review.

General Course Description:
This
lecture course is a requirement for students that intend on enrolling in upper division
chemistry courses. The intention of
this course is to provide students with a fundamental
appreciation for synthetic organic chemistry, including the mechanisms of organic
reactions, as well as an introduction to synthetic methods that facilitate the construction
of complex organic molecules. In addition,
this
course provides
an
introduction to
biological molecules (e.g., carbohydrates, nucleic acids and DNA)
and
the reactions of
these molecules as they relate
to
biological processes. As specific course outline
is
detailed below.
Weeks 1-2: Dienes and their reactivity, and the Diels-Alder reaction. Introduction to
terpenes,
resonance
stabilization
and
allylic
and
benzylic
cations.
Weeks 2-4: Aromatic compound, including nomenclature, electrophilic aromatic
substitution,
Friedel-Crafts
alkylation,
and
substituent
effects
on
reactivity.
Weeks 4-5: Carboxylic acids and their derivatives. including nomenclature and physical
properties, nucleophilic
acyl substitution, reactions of acids, esters, acid chlorides,
amides,
nitriles,
and
Friedel-Crafts
acylation.
Weeks 5-7: Ketones and aldehydes, including oxidation and reduction reactions,
Grignard addition reactions,
reactions with various nucleophiles, reactions of
a,p..
unsaturated aldehydes and ketones, conversion to enamines, imines, keta1s and alkenes.
Reactions
on the a-carbon, including keto-enol tautomerization, enolate formation,
alkylation, halogenation,
Michael reaction, aldol reaction, Claisen condensation, and
Robinson
annulation.
Week 7-8: Biological molecules, including relationships between structure and reactivity,
carbohydrates (discussed
in
the context of acetal!, conformation and stereochemistry),
amino acids (discussed in the context of amides and amide couplings as well as peptide
synthesis),
and DNAIRNA (discussed
in
the context of heterocycles, stability and
reactivity).
Week 9: Reactions of aromatic compounds, including nucleophilic aromatic substitution
as well as the formation and reactions of diazonium salts.
Week 10: Radical chemistry, including a discussion of structure
and
the relationship
between structure and reactivity as well as examples of simple radical reactions.

Week 11: Organometallic chemistry. including a discussion of alkyl lithium reagents
(formation and reactivity). formation and reaction of organocuprates. and the
Reformatsky reaction. A detailed analysis of palladium cross coupling reactions
(including catalytic cycle for Stille cross coupling) and representative examples of both
the Stille cross coupling and Sonagashira cross coupling reactions will also
be
presented.
Week 11: Pericyclic reactions. including a mechanistic discussion of the Diels-Alder
reaction using molecular orbital theory. The molecular orbital theory will also
be
used to
understand the mechanism and requirements for sigmatropic rearrangements.
cycloaddition reactions and electrocyclic rearrangements. Representative and examples
of each type of reaction will
be
given.
Week 13: Specific examples of target-oriented synthesis. including an analysis of

Special Instructions
TILat is, does
this
course replicate the content of a previously approved course to such
an extent that students should not receive credit for both courses.
If
so,
this
should be
noted
in
the pre-requisite.
No similar course currently exists. CHEM 266
is
a new course intended to introduce students to
experimental physical chemistry at
an earlier point in their undergraduate education than has
historically been the case.
Course(s) to be dropped
if this
course is approved: None.
Rationale fol' Introduction of
this
COUl'Se:
No similar course currently exists. The current core offerings
in
physical chemistry do not provide
students
with exposure to modem experimental methods in physical chemistry until the third year
of their undergraduate program, a point which is viewed to be too late in their undergraduate
career. This
is recognized as a shortcoming in our program. The proposed course addresses this
issue directly
by providing students with an earlier exposure to modern experimental methods.

COUl'Be outline to this PI'Oposal.
A survey of the chemistry of-non-transition metal (main group) elements, their
physical
and chemical properties and characterization techniques.
Prerequisite:
CHEM 230 and 236 or permission of the Department.
Corequisite: None
Special Instructions
That
is, does
this
course replicate the content of a previously approved course to such
an extent that students should not receive credit for both courses.
If
so,
this
should be
noted in the pre-requisite.
No similar courses exist. Some redistribution of the laboratory experiments from
CHEM 236 and 336 into
this
course will occur, along with the introduction of new
experiments. There
is minimal
overlap of course material with the core CHEM 230 or
332 courses.
Course(s) to be dropped
if this
course is approved:
None.

Rationale for Introduction of
this
COUl'Se:
The external review of the Chemistry Dept.
in
2008 specifically noted the lack of a
Main Group Chemistry course in our program and urged that such a course
be
added
and this new offering
will
partially address that recommendation. Indeed, this course
fills
a large knowledge gap
in
the current chemistry course offerings (noted by the
external reviewers), that of main group chemistry. SFU remains one of the few
chemistry Departments
in Canada that does not offer a
Main
Group chemistry course.
The proposed CHEM
330
course will help to rectify this situation.
Schedullllg aDd B.egistl'ation Information:
Indicate effective semestel'/yeu course would be first offered and planned
frequency of offering thereafter.
Fall

Special Instructions
That is. does
this
course replicate the content of a previously approved course to such
an
extent that students should not receive credit for both courses.
If
so,
this
should be
noted in the pre-regyisite.
No similar courses currently exist. CHEM 363 was in existence until 1999. This proposal
reintroduces
this
course
with
revised
content.
Course(s) to be dropped
if this
course is approved: None.
Rationale for Introduction of this Course:
The 2008 External Review of Chemistry commented on our physical chemistry offerings with the
statement: "an undergraduate at SFU is likely to receive ... a rather limited exposure to kinetics".
SCUS2006

and recommended "an increase in the exposure of undergraduates to basic physical chemistry" as a
top priority for
a
new course. Reintroduction ofCHEM 363 addresses that deficiency.
This course was in existence until
1999
but was dropped as part of a reorganization of the physical
chemistry curriculum (replacement of261 and 361 with 360 and 260, respectively). At that time
some course material was moved to CHEM 360 but experience has shown that there is not
sufficient time in that course to adequately treat the topic of chemical kinetics, which commands a
full semester course at many other universities.

_-----JI.
CMPT 225, MATH 308, 345
MATH 308. Recommended: MATH 345.
The software packages currently used in 448 demand less programming experience.
In
the current
syllabus, the pre-requisite knowledge from Math 345 is quite minimal, and can be introduced
in
short
time.
As
the OR degree program
has
Math 448 as a required course, but not 345, this change removes
a
hidden
requirement
for
OR
students.
Quantitative.
Does this course replicate the content of a previously approved course to such an extent that students should not receive credit for
both
courses?
If so, this should be noted In the prerequlalte.

Date:
Mar 8, 2011
Please find attached a proposal to revise the Biological Physics Honours Program. This change
was approved by the Physics Department during a departmental meeting held on March 8, 2011.
1) Biological Physics Honours Program: Add PHYS 421 (Electromagnetic Waves) to the list
of
required courses for students who choose to complete Option B of the Upper Division Program
Requirements. The intent of this change is to correct an oversight that was made during the
revision of the departmenfs course offerings in the area of Electricity and Magnetism. The program
used to require PHYS 425 (Electromagnetic Theory); this requirement was accidently dropped from
the program when PHYS 421 was introduced to replace PHYS 425.

Biological Physics Honours Program
This bachelor of science (BSc) honours program is for students who are interested in using physical approaches to
tackle
biological
problems.
Students should speak with an advisor as soon as possible to schedule their programs.
Honours program graduates may undertake graduate work in either physics or molecular biology. or related areas,
and
should
choose
their
courses
accordingly.

Option A or B Requirements
In addition to the requirements stated above, students also complete the requirements for their choice of either Option
A or Option B as stipUlated below.
Option A
Students who choose this option will complete all of
• MBB 481-5 Individual Study Semester- Research Design
• MBB 482-5 Individual Study Semester - Research Performance
• MBB 483-5 Individual Study Semester - Research Reporting
Option B
Students who choose this option will complete all of
• PHYS 384-3 Methods of Theoretical Physics I
• PHYS 415-3 Quantum Mechanics II
• PHYS 421-3 Electromagnetic Waves
• PHYS 432-5 Undergraduate Honours Thesis
• PHYS 445-3 Statistical Physics

Rationale: Several years ago the selection of upper division Electricity and Magnetism courses
offered by the Physics Department was rationalized. As part of this process, PHYS 425
(Electromagnetic Theory) was removed from the calendar and replaced with PHYS 421
(Electromagnetic Waves). This substitution was intended to be made
in
all Physics programs
where PHYS 425 had been required. An oversight occurred
in
the case of the Biological Physics
Honours Program. PHYS 425 was removed from the program but was not replaced with PHYS
421. This change rectifies that oversight.

Hi
Looks fine, thanks for asking. Is it easy to describe how STAT 305 differs
from STAT 3027 We require students in one of our streams (ecology,
evolution and conservation) to take STAT 302, so we are wondering if we
couldl should allow them to take 302 or 305.
Cheers

Hi Julian: Yesterday I submitted a new course proposal (STAT 305) to
Rolf. He asked me if I would run it by you and the Biology
department for course duplication.
I have put a copy of everything
that
I submitted to Rolf in your mailbox. When you are finished
would you please get back to me. (I will be away from Feb.11 to Feb. 28)

Calendar Description;
Intermediate statistical techniques for the health sciences. Review of introductory concepts in statistics and
probability including hypothesis testing, estimation and confidence intervals for means and proportions. Contingency
tables and the analysis of multiple

tables. Correlation and regression. Multiple regression and model selection.
Logistic regression and odds ratios. Basic concepts in survival analysis.
0ntI'1!!;
This
course provides an opportunity for the further development of analytic skills acquired in basic courses in
statistics and
the
health sciences. It concentrates on the relatively few techniques that are currently most used
in
health
research, but it also seeks
to
provide a conceptual basis for understanding other techniques as well.
An
attempt is
made to focus on unifying principles and widely applicable methods as opposed
to
presenting an array of unrelated
ad
hoc methods.
The
material is presented descriptively, from the point of view of understanding and practical use.
The
emphasis of the course is on analysis (rather than design) of primarily observational studies where there is one
outcome variable of primary interest and where the data are made up of multiple independent observations. Important
areas not covered are: classical multivariate analysis (e.g., factor analysis, discriminant analysis, etc.), longitudinal
data analysis, time series, random effects models, and experimental design considerations (e.g.,
Latin
squares, etc.).
Objectives;
By the end of the course the participant should:
1. understand the concept of a statistical model and how such models correspond
to
specific hypotheses or
questions,
2. be able
to
interpret the results of an analysis in relation to the original questions or hypotheses
that
motivated
the analysis,
3. be farojljar with data analysis methods commonly used
in
health sciences and understand the basic limitations
of competing methods,
4. understand and be able to critique the analysis methods described in published
health research
papers.
5. be able to communicate effectively with statistical consultants.

Topics:
The scheduling of the following topics
is
approximate:
1. Review of introductory statistics: Hypothesis testing, estimation and confidence intervals for means and
proportions.
2. Review of basic concepts of probability with applications including diagnostic testing, sensitivity and
specificity, the relative risk
and
the odds ratio.
3. Contingency Tables: The Chi-square test, r x c tables, multiple 2x2 tables, Simpsonls paradox, Mantel-
Haenszel
method.
4. Correlation and simple linear regression: Regression concepts, estimation and testing for regression
coefficients, evaluation
of the model
5. Multiple linear regression: Inference for regression coefficients, confounding
and
interaction, indicator
variables,
model
selection,
prediction,
model
assumptions
and
checking.
6. Logistic regression: Odds ratios. inference for regression coefficients. model assumptions and checking, case-
control
studies.
7. Time permitting: Survival analysis including life tables, censoring, Kaplan-Meier method, log-rank test.
Grading Scheme:
Assignments - 25%
Quizzes - 25%
Final Exam - 50%
Examinations:
There will be in-class quizzes and final which are closed book examinations. Exam questions will be of a general
nature and emphasize
the
interpretation of analysis results rather
than
complex formula calculations.
The
students
will not be required to memorize formulas and may bring a two-sided formula sheet into the exams.
Aaiguments:
In
completing assignments, consultation with other students regarding computer programming methods and
difficulties
is
allowed and encouraged. You should, however, come to your own conclusions, and be prepared to
defend them. Methods
used
should
be
described and shown, and brief computer output should
be
included with the
answer. Some familiarity with the JMP statistical package will
be
helpful

Dear Charmaine ,
I
have completed reviewing the proposal for STAT 305, Biostatistical Methods for
Health sciences, and have determined that no additional library resources will be
required to support it.
I have added the course to the appropriate list at
http://www.lib.sfu.ca/collections!course-assessments.This will be adequate
proof
of library sign-off.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Best regards.
